Fire Protection Automatic Breach Containment Valve - 85-09-1 | Cla-Val

The Cla-Val Model 85-09-1 Automatic Breach Containment Valve is engineered to automatically isolate sections of distribution piping in the event of a catastrophic downstream breach or line break. Commonly installed in commercial building water systems, including fire protection, potable water, and chilled water circulation, this valve helps prevent significant water loss and damage by isolating damaged areas. It ensures continued service until repairs can be made. The valve is particularly effective for high-rise building sprinkler systems, where a line break on upper floors could rapidly deplete fire water reserves due to gravity.

Datasheet and documents

Description

The Cla-Val Model 85-09-1 Automatic Breach Control Valve is designed to automatically isolate portions of distribution piping when a catastrophic downstream breach or line break occurs.  The Breach Control Valve is typically installed in commercial building water distribution systems, such as fire protection, potable water service, or chilled water circulation.

Strategically located to isolate damaged portions of a water system, the Breach Control Valve prevents significant water loss and damage, allowing continued service until piping can be repaired. The Breach Control Valve is especially well-suited for high-rise building sprinkler systems because of their vulnerability to failure should a line break occur in the top floors of a building, where gravity can cause fire water reserves to quickly drain.
